Match Reaction vs Fulham 10/11/12

I'm fairly sure Wenger was doing the opposite.

Anyway - Arteta scored a last-minute penalty in his final game for Everton against Blackburn. Just saying.

Arteta stood up to be counted, he missed but that can happen.

Still think Giroud on a hattrick should have grabbed the ball and gone for it, any striker on a hattrick would surely?

if 16 points after 11 games isnt pointless then please give me the glass you've been drinking from.

might even help me get over this hangover.

Err, not sure I understand. If you're saying 16 points from 11 is something to be proud of then pass me your glass, it's certainly much fuller than mine.

Obviously - Ive thought Wenger was shit even longer than you. From about 2007 it was obvious he'd lost the plot.

Sorry that's not quite right, I've thought he was an idiot from about then if not a bit before to be honest....I spotted the signs early

i thought thats what you were saying

you said we'd be pointless soon if we stayed with the prof

im saying we're already pointless. as our points tally suggests.

It's not just today's game though is it? It's 7 years of this sh*t, these comments aren't simply about today it's the general feeling about this team/squad/club.

All these little things add up to making us a nothing team with no hope of any success, you don't win anything with a sh*te defence and neither do you win anything with shrinking violets who run away at the mere sign of trouble.

You want leaders, players with self belief not players who have a "not sure if they I'm up to it today, maybe next time" attitude.

they are about today, you were talking about giroud?

anyway, as someone else said, its all part of the wengbot way. arteta takes them, if not cazorla. but i suppose giroud should've shoved him to the ground and started a ruck to show his passion for scoring a third.

That's the only point I was making really. Rather focus on other things. I don't think 'being a striker' automatically correlates to being the best penalty-taker in the team. But once more, he might have scored, he might have not.

Ah, ok. Sorry, yes, I agree.

as that is the very first concern from todays game? the defence has been average for years, as have arsenal. does that mean we just take it for granted, no need for debate there either?

You know my feelings on this. There should be a fucking great broom taken to the whole place, a clean out from top to bottom. Anybody who isn't in this 100% for the club and can appreciate if they get that bit right then the glory follows by default should be fucked out the door. Who isn't sick of all these ****s spouting their bullshit throughout the week only to fall flat on their faces come the weekend? And they want five, six figures a fucking match for this shit. They can fuck off. But this is just the standard, everyday, ongoing problem at the club. This is normal at Arsenal. So I look for those moments of inspiration instead, even if it's a fucking stupid and humiliating comeback against dogshit Reading. It still gets you out of your seat, you still get a little bit back. I would have loved to hear about a Giroud hat trick today. It would have been something to talk about rather than the usual shit. I'm not excusing the defence, I'm not saying anything about the defence because we all know it inside and out. Would have liked to tune in tonight for Giroud's hat trick though - but fuck that, we didn't even try. Like I said, the soul has gone, this club is just a shell game.

And Giroud didn't considering he got us the 2nd and 3rd goal?

It's pretty harsh to shit on a player because he didn't disobey the manager to take penalty but has scored 2 goals for us already.

If you're on a hattrick noone is going to argue to be honest.
